      Question so, me being a brand new fxf city driver, how does seniority work. Like doing work dock and do these runs etc?

    Great video - but it would be even greater if the music was a bit lower, so it would be easier hearing you, when you explain things 🙂

    Good video, but how doesn't he get away with filming on his cell phone while driving? A video like this usually means an instant firing at most freight companies......?

      No, you will be out for approximately 2 weeks, in for 3 or 4 days then back out. Running consistently is dependent on freight levels, and it’s slow right now…election year.

    PLEASE take this video down, if Safety sees it they will fire you! We lost two dudes in CLT, two in GBO, a few in MRT, and one in ASH because they were recording videos while they were in “On Duty” status and it was obvious they were working! They don’t play!
